I love chatting on the phone so not sure. Texts are too easily scripted and you can rewrite your response so it’s not always a good reflection of fluent and easy dialogue. I think if you chat on the phone it’s more representative of who you are and how you engage with people. Of course, that being said I’d rather get a coffee and see in person

Nope! Maybe I’m too cynical, but onwoipd like to make sure the person I’m meeting is genuine, there’s too many fakes around these days.

A phone call is the only way to make sure your talking to a real person

Just to add to what I posted above... If the person has several verifications showing they are genuine, then phone conversations are not needed, just hope they turn up at rendezvous point for the socials

You would possibly have a ‘fab phone’ for such occasions

Yes, there are many other ways to verify identity. Just because somebody speaks on the phone doesn't guarentee they will show.

We prefer to meet in person socially first, no need for a phone call.

We only send messages via Fab, we don't move a chat to anywhere else e.g Kik and would never give out our mobile numbers.

I insist on swapping numbers and generally request a phone call. I’m not trusting someone with my body if he can’t trust me with him number.

There are exceptions such as guys that friends know already.

Is there no inbetween here? They're always rimming you within 10 seconds of seeing them?

Hiding from twats

Yes, firstly because I don't give my number out to people I haven't actually met, and secondly because I hate talking on the phone with a passion. Also I've usually got kids arguing or dogs barking in the background, it doesn't make a great impression.

Never give my number out again to someone I've not built up a relationship with in having conversations online, did it once and learnt the hard way, phone numbers are for friends not fab friends...

No you cannot block when they use different phones to call you, once they have your number its theirs.

In another thread some people wouldn't meet unless the other person is verified

But some would meet a verified profile without hearing their voice? WOW!

I like to talk (at some point) weather's it's a phonecall or IM app.

I’d meet someone unverified without hearing their voice. In fact, I have. Many times.

If someone wants to hear my voice then they can do it face to face like a grown up.
